When I was 6 years old, my life changed for good. My daddy went to rehab and we had to move out of our home to my grandmother’s house. I didn’t know about anything that was happening, all I knew was my daddy wasn’t there anymore.

When I was 7 years old, I started visiting my daddy in prison. I still didn’t know anything. I was still in the dark.

When I was 8 years old, my brother finally told me that my daddy was on drugs. I cried to my mommy in disbelief, then she told me the truth about my life.

When I was 14 years old, my daddy was released from prison after 7 years. I just recently found out what the charge was. I could finally ask the questions that only I didn’t know the answers to.

When I was 16 years old, I found a book in my car that my daddy had filled out. I guess it was a drug recovery book and when I read it, I got a small clue of how my daddy felt, about himself and his drug problem.
